The center, which when completed will consist of three buildings totaling 55,000 square feet, has given life to part of the highway near Allaire Road in Wall. It used to be a dismal place: the site of the old Levitz Furniture store, which stood vacant from 2005 until it was knocked down a year ago.

"It was an eyesore for the longest time," Wall Mayor Timothy J. Farrell said. "Once the buildings are up, it is really going to look much nicer."

So far it's just Starbucks, which opened in a 2,200-square-foot store with a drive-up window.

So what's to come? What's Going There got the list of the tenants who have signed up so far. You can check out the video at the top of this story too.

There's only a 2,500-square-foot space left to rent, according to Marta Person Villa, senior vice president at Jones Lang LaSalle, the commercial brokerage representing Wall Promenade.

So here you go:

MedExpress is under construction next to Starbucks. The urgent care center and Starbucks were the earliest leases announced. A MedExpress sign is up on the building.

Discount grocer Aldi is leasing space for a 20,000-square-foot store. The store's foundation is currently under construction. Aldi is Wall Promenade's anchor tenant.

Planet Fitness, the gym with the "judgement free zone," has signed a lease for 15,000 square feet next to Aldi.

Rock on Nails will move into a 4,000-square-foot shop on the other side of Aldi.

Pancheros Mexican Grill, the fast casual Tex-Mex restaurant chain, will open a 2,500-square-foot restaurant in a retail building located at the front of Wall Promenade, across the parking lot from Starbucks.

Club Pilates, which holds Reformer-based group Pilates classes, will open a studio in a 1,600 square foot space near Pancheros.

Frutta Bowls will be a neighbor after the restaurant company opens up a shop in a 1,600 square foot space.

A representative of Mega Holdings LLC, which purchased the property in 2015 for more than $4 million, could not be reached for comment.

Villa, who has worked on the Wall Promenade project for four years, said she would like to see one more food tenant. A liquor consumption license also is available, she added.

"We talked to many, many, many restaurants," she said. "Now all we have is 2,500 square feet left."

Changes at Wall Promenade and Allaire Plaza, a shopping center next door, is remaking the retail scene on Route 35 in Wall.

"Wall is a proven market because of Route 35 and Whole Foods moving there and the other tenants that are moving into the Whole Foods center," Villa said. The intersection of Allaire Road and Route 35 is "more of the ground zero of retail" on that stretch of Route 35.
